Don't have an account? If you're in the Australia and New Zealand region, then why not make one?

It's free, it gets rid of those annoying unrelated ads when browsing the boards, and it only takes a few seconds to set up before you can start posting and discussing LEGO with the great ANZFOL community!

We look foward to seeing you on the boards!

Cheers,

Darth Legois, Captain Zuloo and the ANZFOL team!

A forum for all LEGO fans, young or old from the Australia and New Zealand regions to discuss their brick building hobby!

wow looks like it's goning to be huge!nice wall design, simple but very effective.do you plan to add timber (brown) interia supports or is it going to be completely stone built?looking forward to seeing your progress!

Soon after starting my MOC ship/port i realised that it'll end up being thousands of bricks and may take quite some time to collect the parts(my little patch of SNOT water is over 500 pcs).dont give up!!

Cheers guys, its been fun, but its been scary browsing bricklink adding things to the basket and seeing a total jump from $20 to $80TM I think I will try to put some timber supports in thereI think size wize it will be a bit bigger than the standard castle but will go up a bit more too.Dunno, see what happens I guess, I really want to finish it, so it will mean no other lego purchases for a while

I'll have to post some better pics of them in the other section of the forum.

Anyways got some more work done on this last night and today

The throne my son Dominik designed

Changed the outer side of this block and added the bars in place

The whole section completed

This is where we are at at the end of tonight.I have another 3 orders in with bricklink for close to $200 worth of stuff so hopefully that will get me somewhere to finishing this offHopefully..................

Did some work in LDD today for a dining hall for the castle, this needs to be inside the walls, roof for it will be flat and will have to make a catapult to go on top of itAlso have another 4 orders for bricks coming from bricklink that were shipped today so hopefully next week can do more building.

Cheers chaps, well with the bricklink orders we should have it in the flesh in approx 2 weeks depending on when the orders arrive.I just need to find an aussie seller on bricklink now with brown chairs

Dunno if the tower will ever get built, would be nice but not sure at this stage.More bricklink orders arrived and here we are after building till 2.30am last night.Also after designing the dining hall I realised the wall needed to be expanded, its pretty much doubled in length from the first pic

Yeah TM its getting there, my youngest son loves it.I dont have any idea of the brick count and it should get huge as I still have the front gate to do. Then some details inside the walls.Might have to order more bricks too, thats gonna make the wife mad

Took the tower off the back wall and replaced it with 2 smaller ones in each corner, there will be some tweeking still to go in there.Blacksmiths area, still need to make the anvil for it and maybe redo those weapon racks not real happy with themDining Hall, all it needs now are peopleWe wanted a wizards hut in the castle, this was originally on that back wall but it didnt look right so it was taken down and will go on the ground inside the castle wallsWhere we are at the end of building at the moment.

Thanks guys, Its been fun tweaking bits and pieces as we go.This will be a castle that will be played with so things need to be either reasonably solid or repaired easy. Those are the two main things I'm keeping in mind while building this thing
